Into the top 10

I sit here, exhilarated and slightly
exhausted. The second and final round of the British Open Champs at Pedro
Bernardo is Central Spain was a resounding success, with 5 great tasks.

I had a good comp too and one of my best ever
tasks at this level: I managed to be in the lead gaggle for the first half of
the race and then in the splinter group at the front after that. At one stage I
was third in that, but was lost about 6 minutes at the end when we needed to
find a small climb to get us into goal. Still a great task! What was
particularly gratifying that I improved my flying (and my score)
with almost every task and finished in the top 10. This year has
really fired me up to improve my racing futher!
